My understanding is that these scripts backup the databases associated with the mail accounts, but not the actual email themselves. I am a one man operation. If my system gets hosed (we get a lot of hurricanes here)... I want to be able to, relatively easily, be able to get it back up and running again.

DBMAIL would add lot of flexibility because mail storage would be database, not filesystem. So that would solve backup etc problems because you could simply replicate database.Dovecot could be used as imap/pop3 proxy for DBMAIL because DBMAIL don't have build-in ssl support yet.

If dbmail works for a busy mail server, mysql/pgsql will become huge quickly since it stores all mails in database, do they (dbmail/mysql/pgsql) still have good performance?

Also, how do you manage stored mails and accounts with dbmail? How to let other domain admins to manage their accounts? i didn't find any web-based admin panel yet, only CLI available?

Many mail admins can't live without POP3S/IMAPS/SMTPS.

Without DSPAM I could live, but not without DBMAIL.

You can integrate dbmail yourself, or after iRedMail installation.

Another question: do you have dbmail running on a production server?

Does my reply help a little? How about buying me a cup of coffee ($5) as an encouragement?

Re: Wishlist for iRedMail-0.8.0

Email Reports such as option to create a report for a recipient who has sent or received from 10/03/2011 to 24/03/2011 have found no reporting tool

It's better to achieve reporting in admin panel, like iRedAdmin-Pro.

With iRedAdmin-Pro-LDAP-1.5.0 or iRedAdmin-Pro-MySQL-1.1.0 (both will be available soon), you can view per-user sent/received/quarantined mail logs, you can easily found mails sent/received in a date range.

What about ConfigServer Security & Firewall (http://www.configserver.com/cp/csf.html)? I am using it at the moment and I find it quite useful if set up properly. It does a good job in rejecting/blocking computers scanning for ports etc. It's a a step up in the server's security in my eyes.
